The First Letter of Saint John 2: 29- 3:6

2:29	If you know that he is just, then know, too, that all who do what is just are born of him.

3:1	See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we would be called, and would become, the sons of God. Dêrom, the world does not know us, for it did not know him.
3:2	Most beloved, we are now the sons of God. But what we shall be then has not yet appeared. We know that when he does appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
3:3	And everyone who holds this hope in him, keeps himself holy, just as he also is holy.
3:4	Everyone who commits a sin, also commits iniquity. For sin is iniquity.
3:5	And you know that he appeared in order that he might take away our sins. For in him there is no sin.
3:6	Everyone who abides in him does not sin. For whoever sins has not seen him, and has not known him.

The Holy Gospel According to John 1: 29-34

1:29	De oare deis, Johannes seach Jezus op him ta kommen, en sa sei er: "Sjoch, it Lam fan God. Sjuch, dy't de sûnde fan 'e wrâld weinimmt.
1:30	Dit is dejinge oer wa't ik sei, ‘Nei my komt der in man oan, dy't foar my set is, want hy bestie foar my.’
1:31	En ik koe him net. Dochs is it om dizze reden dat ik doop mei wetter kom: sadat hy iepenbier makke wurde mei yn Israel.
1:32	En Johannes joech tsjûgenis, siswize: "Want ik seach de Geast delkomme út 'e himel as in douwe; en hy bleau by him.
1:33	En ik koe him net. Mar hy dy't my stjoerde om te dopen mei wetter sei tsjin my: ‘Hy oer wa't jo de Geast sille sjen delkomme en op him bliuwe, dit is dejinge dy't doopt mei de Hillige Geast.’
1:34	En ik seach, en ik joech tsjûgenis: dat dizze de Soan fan God is."
